Works a treat at club level where every trophy is hard fought and cherished. It would deliver lots more meaningful, evenly contested and attractive games.
Everything else adds to the issue: ticket prices; state of grounds; tv coverage; other sports etc.
The quality of the product is an issue with the coaches, not the rules.
And how many people even knew Monaghan were playing Cavan on Sunday - it just crept up.
There are 3 grades, Kilkenny won the Junior in 2022 and didn't take their promotion the wa*ks, NY won it last year with a team of homegrown Yanks. Going back to the previous format loads of counites opted out, Kerry cleverly used it as a bridge between their minor and Senior setups, a lot of the Kerry lads would have AI's at Junior level. The reason not to split Sam / Tailteann into a further third tier (which I think would have been your point) was provided last weekend by Wickla and Waterford, 2 tiers is plenty
I wouldn't say 2 tiers is plenty and a couple of freak results doesn't change that.
How many 'freak' results would it take - should Wickla not be allowed to bet Westmead?
"Wicklow" or Waterford haven't even a hope of winning the Tallthin cup and would be more beneficial for them to be in a third tier competition.
And no-one would have given Cavan a hope of winning the Covid Ulster (except Mickey Harte) but they did
There's 16 teams who won't win the Tailteann, they might not all have the goal of winning it, they of course want to get as far as possible but some could be targeting a quarter final or semi-finals as a real sign of progress, to bounce from into next year and beyond
Leave that race to the bottom mentality for hurling with its 5 tier nonsence
Why not they were in the Final in 2019 so it was not a big step to come back the following year and go on and win it.

In hindsight letting him go for Rojo was a massive error. He has been excellent every time he's played this season

He played hurling himself I believe.Niblock and McConville are excellent on the podcast. McConville probably the best analyst around.
But....his commentary is so cheesy it puts me off.
I really like Niblock too, he's obviously knowledgeable and I love the podcast. He's an excellent presenter - not sure about his live commentary skills though.

ALLEGEDLY
She's in an induced coma after Wills bate the head off her because she was having an affair with her sister Pippa's old boyfriend who happened to top himself a few weeks back in a barn with a shotgun.
